Originally scheduled to last 30 minutes, the Council was required by the Open Public Meetings Act to return to the business meeting and officially extend the Executive Session. There is no evidence they did so. On the contrary, the video record shows them calling the Executive Session, then a fade-out, a fade-in, and then a resumption of the business meeting, during which Council took further action. Taking up an unscheduled agenda item, they passed a motion to authorize the hiring of external counsel for their lawsuit by Ronald Wastewater District over the disputed Interlocal Operating Agreement between the two governments. Arguably the most newsworthy portion of the meeting, the action was reported in a SAN article 2 nights later, and has received at least 12 comments.Tom Jamiesonnoreply@blogger.com
